Thanks for the great pics and also ...Hi Stephanie!!<br />Thanks for the great pics and also for your email! The picture of Gorey and his cats lounging was my favorite. I also loved Mr. Gorey's style of illustration since the early days of study at SVA. I particularly liked the photo of the Gotham Book Mart that brought back old memories, where'd you dig that up?<br /><br />Best,<br /><br />AndréAndrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06065815576812420279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537087009231417436.post-68750700588732820662013-06-12T16:52:46.255-07:002013-06-12T16:52:46.255-07:00Karen,

Thank you for posting! How nice you got...Hi Karen,<br /><br />Thank you for posting! How nice you got to see him in his milieu at the ballet! And Dracula, twice! I saw it when it opened and had really great seats, can't remember the row. Frank Langella was gorgeous!<br />Isy mentioned the collection. I'd love to see it if and when it's ever open to the public!<br />And the Gorey House was magical. I am going to join as well. Good to keep supporting it! I hope to get back there sometime soon or at least next spring.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17597916863723389117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537087009231417436.post-50513350129060833752013-06-12T13:22:18.391-07:002013-06-12T13:22:18.391-07:00Isabella sent me here, because she knows how much ...Isabella sent me here, because she knows how much I love Edward Gorey. Back in the 1970s, I had a limited subscription to the ballet, and sometimes I would see him in the lobby. It was beyond exciting for me.<br /><br />I saw the Gorey Dracula twice, both times from the third row.<br /><br />I went to the Gorey Museum a couple of years ago, which is a magical, magical place:<br />http://www.flickr.com/photos/klg19/tags/edwardgorey/<br />I'm still a member, even though I have no idea when I'll get back up there.<br /><br />I work at Columbia University, and our Rare Book and Manuscript Library recently got a massive gift of Goreyana, from a long-time collector named Andrew Alpern. We even have one of his furs! Some of it has been cataloged:<br />http://clio.columbia.edu/catalog?f[author_facet][]=Edward+Gorey+Collection+of+Andrew+Alpern<br /><br />Thanks for a great post!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01288100796201737845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537087009231417436.post-59624373666405977692013-06-12T12:59:23.547-07:002013-06-12T12:59:23.547-07:00Come visit sometime, Ann, and we can make the trip...Come visit sometime, Ann, and we can make the trip!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17597916863723389117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537087009231417436.post-18623283540844928722013-06-12T12:46:22.388-07:002013-06-12T12:46:22.388-07:00SO envious.
